Conversion formula

The conversion factor from feet per second to knots is 0.59248380129641, which means that 1 foot per second is equal to 0.59248380129641 knots:

1 ft/s = 0.59248380129641 kt

To convert 396 feet per second into knots we have to multiply 396 by the conversion factor in order to get the velocity amount from feet per second to knots. We can also form a simple proportion to calculate the result:

1 ft/s → 0.59248380129641 kt

396 ft/s → V(kt)

Solve the above proportion to obtain the velocity V in knots:

V(kt) = 396 ft/s × 0.59248380129641 kt

V(kt) = 234.62358531338 kt

The final result is:

396 ft/s → 234.62358531338 kt

We conclude that 396 feet per second is equivalent to 234.62358531338 knots:
